The Simple Things That Make Me Happy

Very often it’s the simplest of things in life that make me happy. Those little things that I can sometimes take for granted.
I’ve always loved writing and have kept a diary for years where I’ve written down what’s made me happy on that particular day, as well as what’s made me really angry or upset. I’ve recently been reading through some old teenage diaries and that gave me the inspiration for this post, so I thought it would be quite nice to share what things make me happy throughout the year.

So here goes:

Watching a beautiful sunset

The feel of freshly washed hair

Fresh, clean sheets on the bed

A tidy desk

Listening to the sound of rain against the window

Cuddles with my cat, Pepper, and listening to her purring

The sound of the sea washing over pebbles

Collecting sea shells on the beach

Dipping my toes in the sea

Snuggled under a warm throw

Breakfast in bed

Baking a cake

New pyjamas

Reading a good book before I go to bed

A hot mug of tea with jam on toast

A soft, warm towel after a bath

An early morning walk when it’s foggy

Disney movies

A hot chocolate or bowl of hot soup on a cold day

A hug from someone special

Doodling in a notebook and colouring books

An unsuspected phone call from a friend

Receiving a handwritten letter

Having fresh flowers in the house

Sitting in the garden on a warm summer’s evening

Lighting a candle in my room

Spending time with my friends and family

Someone leaving a lovely comment on my blog or my social media

There are so many more things I could add to this list but I’d be here all day! Above all else, the one person who makes me happy no matter what is my hubby, Adrian.
